I think the problem with this kind of analysis is that even 20 years worth of finals winners is far too small of a sample size to predict the...
Yup. It isn't an insult to call Bev a role player. Bev fills a role here, just like Derek Fisher did on the championship Lakers.
Right. Both players bring different "intangibles" to the table. Not enough posters acknowledge how Lin affects the ball movement and how he...
Agreed on all fronts. There is an overreaction to Lin fandom despite the fact that it is no longer really relevant. So many normally rational...
The problem with "no stat" all stars is that they are always overrated by the eye test and underrated by the box score. Beverley is a great...
The problem is that your premise about the LOF issue is a huge strawman. Once upon a time, there might have been quite a few LOFs posting all the...
Likewise, when CF posters retaliate to the trolls, it drives generally moderate Rocket fans who see something in Lin to come to his defense. Then...
I dont really have anything to say about the opportunity cost issue you mentioned. Are you angry that there are better players out there and we...
Dragic and Lowry both vastly outplayed their current contract. By no means would you be able to sign either one of them to what they're currently...
Yes. He went from primary ballhandler to secondary ballhandler to spot-up shooter/occasional slasher over the course of 3 seasons. He has no...
They're playing him out of his element - its like telling Pau Gasol to stand at the three point line instead of posting up. His entire career has...

Lol. Yes I agree that this guy is worse than Canaan. Unfortunately Canaan is worse than Lin, so by the transitive property,...
Right - I guess I don't understand why we are pursuing this guy when we have multiple guards better. Insurance policy is the only thing that...
this guy looks awful... looks like an average athlete playing against lesser talent, and still looks incredibly herky jerky. Not better than...
When you build an offense around a player, that player better be an otherworldly talent. There is a middle ground between building an offense...
I highly doubt that Lin's value is that low. Lin is an extremely serviceable PG with a solid track record and a high ceiling. At worst, this guy...
Lin is overpaid for his current production and overpaid for his current role. However, Lin is underpaid for his potential production in the right...
4. Bev on the bench would mean literally no playmaking on the second unit. Not as big of a deal since you can always stagger the starters with...
I know you hate Lin, but at least make reasonable arguments. Lin is nothing like Alston. Not in the way he plays, not in his implicit or...
